Best of Kangaroo Island In 3 Days
4:35:00 PM
In July, I finally get to step foot on Kangaroo Island that I heard so much of.
This was the main highlight of my Australia trip!
We spent a total of 3 full days in KI, and it felt way too short! Just 40 minutes away by ferry from the mainland, this place is a sanctuary for wildness and purity. KI itself has a population of 2 billion Kangaroos.
I love the freedom and closeness to nature, everyday is so simple and relaxing. You can just retire there for the rest of your life.
Places to visit | Main attractions:
- Seal Bay Conservation Park*
- Vivonne Bay
- Little Sahara
- Pennington Bay
- Stokes Bay
- Kangaroo Island Wildlife Park*

Our cosy Airbnb home. This place is perfect for two, but only convenient with car.
The hosts were an old couple, who were previously park rangers and now retired running homestay.
They were really welcoming and friendly, they even help us plan our itinerary
to make sure we get the most out of it within 3 days in KI!

📍Island Pure Honey Farm
📍Kangaroo Island Wildlife Park
Entrance fee: AUD25 per adult
Super worth it I must say, you can probably spend half a day there!
The best wildlife park in this entire trip!
Koala petting is included in the entrance fee.
If you want to hug and take photos with them you have to purchase a special pass.
They were hugging😊
📍Stokes Bay
📍Flinders Chase National Park
Entrance fee: AUD 11 (One day entry)
Visitor have to purchase all tickets at the visitor center,
and they require you to display the tickets on the car.
I would suggest you to purchase the concession, if you think you need more than one day to cover the park.
There is so many things to do and see here, half day for us was not enough.

We were trying to get a tripod shot, and we got photobombed by this car.
The family drove near our tripod to disturb us😂
📍Remarkable Rocks
Spot the New Zealand fur seals!
They were everywhere along the boardwalk to Admiral Arch! We were so lucky to see so many of them as winter season is when most of them come closer to land to seek shelter and rest.
📍Admiral Arch
We arrived just in time for sunset! Look at this!
How often do you get such a beautiful sight of nature, seals and sunset😍
I cannot stop looking at the seals, first time up close!
📍Seal Bay Conservation Park
Entrance fee: AUD 35 (inclusive of experience tour)
If you are a seal lover like me, you should get the tickets with experience tour where the park ranger/guide will bring you up close to the beach and restricted areas where most of the seals are.
If you are not, this place could be a little pricey.
The boardwalk to Admiral Arch will be sufficient and you do not have to spend so much money.

The boardwalk I was talking about without experience tour.
There were only a few seals near the boardwalk for us to see.
The seals were all over the dunes. This is the closest you can ever get.
Most of them were resting at the beach after 2-3 full days of swimming and hunting for food.
📍Seal Bay Cottage
📍Vivonne Bay
This is definitely one of the best place in the world,
and it makes me crave for more of such wildness and nature!
